Respuesta :

Answer:

amount receive is $2653.90

Explanation:

given data

time t = 12 year

present value = $20000

rate r = 8 %  = 0.08

to find out

how much income receive each year

solution

we will apply here present value formula that is

present value = amount × [tex]( \frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{r*(1+r)^{t} } )[/tex]   .........1

put here all these value in equation 1 we get amount

present value = amount × [tex]( \frac{1}{r} - \frac{1}{r*(1+r)^{t} } )[/tex]

20000 = amount × [tex]( \frac{1}{0.08} - \frac{1}{0.08*(1+0.08)^{12} } )[/tex]

solve it and we get amount = 2653.90

so amount receive is $2653.90
